Hi Brian, I have not read his book, all that I know about him is that he was very knowledgeable in his field (using a C versions of forth) and yet was very humble (a good thing) and he also coined the expression "trying to explain forth in forth is silly" (think that is what he said or something like that). Also when I reached out to one of his associates Brad Nelson he actually responded with useful information.
Thank you for your comment.
